Taylor 1380 is a weather forecaster and thermometer that provides accurate weather conditions for the next 24 hours. It uses temperature and humidity level changes to predict upcoming weather conditions. Keep it handy for future reference, and follow the instructions below for initial setup.
The device requires two AAA batteries to operate. Once powered, select the weather icon closest to your current conditions, set the time and date. Taylor 1380 will analyze weather conditions for approximately 6 hours before providing weather forecasts. Place the sensor probe outdoors, ensuring it is shaded and protected from extreme temperatures and moisture.

To Power up Weather Forecaster
Use 2 AAA batteries (not included).
Remove the battery compartment cover on the back of the
unit. Install 2 AAA batteries according to the polarity markings in
the compartment. Replace the cover.

Low Battery Warning
Replace both batteries when the “ ” icon appears or
readings become dim or irregular.
To Set Up the Weather Forecaster for Use
1. After battery installation, the current weather icon ashes.
2. Press “Up” or “Down” to select the weather icon you believe
most closely reects the current conditions in your area.
(Partly Cloudy is the default setting).

3. Press “TIME/DATE” to select the displayed weather icon. The
icon stops ashing.
Icon ashes during setup, then steady when set
4. Please allow at least 6 hours for the unit to read weather
conditions and start to forecast. During this time, the current
temperature will update, but all other readings will remain
the same.
Only current temperature will update during 1st hour.
Temperature forecasts and weather icons are
identical while analyzing 1st forecast.

5. Use the attached cable with sensor probe to measure outdoor
weather conditions. Open a window and run the cable
through the opening so that the sensor probe at the end of
the cable is exposed to the outdoor temperature and weather
conditions. Locate the sensor probe in a dry, shaded area. Di-
rect sunlight, direct contact with snow or ice, or other extreme
temperature conditions will affect accuracy. Gently close the
window to avoid crimping or severing the cable.
Important: Though the sensor probe is weather resistant, it should
be placed away from direct sunlight, rain, snow and should never
be submerged in water.
6. When the unit begins to forecast weather conditions, all
temperature and weather screens will update.
7. The remote sensor will automatically transmit updates to the
base unit.
• The current temperature will update approximately every 30
seconds.
•Temperature and weather forecasts will update every 6
hours during the rst 24 hours of operation.
• After 24 hours, updates occur every 1 hour.
Please note: if the sensor probe senses identical weather
conditions over a 24 hour period, all the screens will show
identical readings.

To Set Clock and Date
1. Press and hold “TIME/DATE” for 2 seconds, then release.
2. Press “UP” or “DOWN” to change the hours. Press “TIME/DATE”.
3. Press “UP” or “DOWN” to change the minutes. Press “TIME/DATE”.
4. Press “UP” or “DOWN” to switch between a 12 or 24 hour clock.
Press “TIME/DATE”.
5. Press “UP” or “DOWN” to change the year. Press “TIME/DATE”.
6. Press “UP” or “DOWN” to change the month. Press “TIME/DATE”.
7. Press “UP” or “DOWN” to change the date. Press “TIME/DATE”.
8. Clock/Date setup are complete.
9. Press “TIME/DATE” to toggle between the time and year displays.
°C/°F Selection
Press the “C/F” button on the back of the unit to switch between
Fahrenheit and Celsius temperatures.
Tips
Setup:
Place the tabletop base unit indoors in a well-ventilated location
away from direct sunlight with access to the outdoors through a
window or other opening.
Locate the sensor probe in a dry, shaded area. Direct sunlight,
direct contact with snow or ice, or other extreme temperature
conditions will affect accuracy.
Reset:
To reset the weather forecaster, remove and reinstall all batteries.
Repeat set up procedures.

Problem Solving
1. If the LCD readout is faint, replace the batteries.
2. If temperatures do not display on the base unit or seem irregular:
a) Check to see the cable is not crimped, severed or otherwise
damaged;
b) Relocate sensor probe if it is obstructed from weather condi-
tions or in contact with an object that might affect temperature
readings (hot metal object, snow, etc.)
c) Remove and reinstall all batteries, using new fully charged bat-
teries;
d) Repeat set-up procedures;
3. If new batteries are faulty on the initial installation, install fresh
batteries. If you did not notice the Low Battery icon warning and
the product performed correctly after initial set up, the batteries
have lost their charge. Replace the batteries (see To Power up
Weather Forecaster).
Display Information
If the receiver unit does not receive a transmission from the sensor
probe for 1 hour, the display will show dashes. Remove and reinstall
all batteries and repeat set up procedures. Check to see that the
cable is not crimped or severed and the sensor is not obstructed.
Try various locations for the sensor probe if necessary.
Over- or under- temperature range displays:
If the temperature is outside the unit’s temperature range of -40°F
to 158°F / -40°C to 70°C (with use of lithium batteries), the LCD will
show “HH” (higher than the temperature range) or “LL” (lower than
the temperature range). When temperatures are within the range,
the readings will return. If necessary, relocate the sensor probe
away from locations with extreme temperatures (such as snow or
a hot surface).

Use to hang on a wall.
Temperature/Forecast Updates
The sensor probe sends temperature and weather condition infor-
mation to the base unit.
After battery installation, allow 6 hours for the unit to analyze
weather conditions and report forecasts.
Weather readings will update as follows:
• Current temperature updates approximately every 30 seconds.
• Temperature and weather forecasts update every 6 hours during
the rst 24 hours of operation after battery installation.
• After 24 hours, updates occur every 1 hour.
After an extreme temperature changes (ex. relocating the sensor
from a warm indoor location to snowy outdoors), allow a few min-
utes for the temperature reading to stabilize.
Precautions
1. Always read the instruction manual before operating this product.
2. Do not immerse the base unit in water. If you spill liquid on it, dry
immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth.
3. The sensor probe is weather resistant but not waterproof and
should never be submerged in water. It should be placed away
from direct sunlight, rain, and snow.
4. Do not clean the unit with abrasive or corrosive materials. This may
scratch plastic parts and corrode electronic circuits.
5. Do not subject unit to excessive force, shock, dust, temperature
or humidity. This may result in malfunction, shorter electronic life
span, damaged battery or distorted parts.
6. Do not tamper with the unit’s internal components. Doing so will
invalidate the warranty on this product and may cause damage.
The unit contains no user-serviceable parts.
7. Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix Alkaline, Lithium,
carbon zinc (standard) or Nickel-Cadmium (rechargeable) bat-
teries. Do not dispose of batteries in re. Batteries may explode or
leak. Remove the batteries if the unit will not be used for a long
period of time.
8. The base unit is intended for indoor use only. It is not sealed
against moisture and could be damaged if used outdoors or in
humid indoor conditions.
9. Due to continuous product improvements, the illustrations shown
in this manual may differ from the actual displays.
10. If you choose to locate the sensor probe indoors (in a basement,
attic, child’s room, etc.), the sensor will not be tracking outdoor
conditions and the base unit will not be able to receive an ac-
curate weather forecast.
